HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, if there is nothing in ear like wax, infection, foreign body, then it is very likely that this could be hallucination, better called auditory hallucination, this is kind of functional condition, try to control your thoughts, be positive, stop worrying about this, hope this information helps, take care ( Viral infection and some medicines may be the cause and that need to be ruled out )
I find this answer helpful
